Pandoc is a Haskell library for converting from one markup format to
another, and a command-line tool that uses this library. It can read
markdown and (subsets of) HTML, reStructuredText, LaTeX, DocBook,
MediaWiki markup, TWiki markup, Haddock markup, OPML, Emacs Org-Mode,
txt2tags and Textile, and it can write markdown, reStructuredText,
XHTML, HTML 5, LaTeX, ConTeXt, DocBook, OPML, OpenDocument, ODT, Word
docx, RTF, MediaWiki, DokuWiki, Textile, groff man pages, plain text,
Emacs Org-Mode, AsciiDoc, Haddock markup, EPUB (v2 and v3),
FictionBook2, InDesign ICML, and several kinds of HTML/javascript slide
shows (S5, Slidy, Slideous, DZSlides, reveal.js).
Pandoc extends standard markdown syntax with footnotes, embedded LaTeX,
definition lists, tables, and other features. A compatibility mode is
provided for those who need a drop-in replacement for Markdown.pl.
In contrast to existing tools for converting markdown to HTML, which use
regex substitutions, pandoc has a modular design: it consists of a set
of readers, which parse text in a given format and produce a native
representation of the document, and a set of writers, which convert this
native representation into a target format. Thus, adding an input or
output format requires only adding a reader or writer.

Reason:
The Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compiler has been updated to version
8.0.2. Hence it is recommended to rebuild or reinstall all the
dependent ports and the lang/ghc port itself in one of the following
ways:
# portmaster -w -r ghc
or
# portupgrade -fr lang/ghc
In case of pkg(8), it is probably safer to remove all the GHC-dependent
packages along with GHC and reinstall everything from scratch. For
example:
# pkg query "%ro" ghc > ghc-pkgs.txt
# pkg delete -y lang/ghc
In ghc-pkgs.txt, check and remove all the packages that have been moved
on the update, then use this command:
# pkg install -y `cat ghc-pkgs.txt`

Author: haskell@FreeBSD.org

Reason:
The Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compiler has been updated to version
7.8.3 and Haskell Platform to 2014.2.0.0. Hence it is recommended to
rebuild or reinstall all the dependent ports and the lang/ghc port
itself by one of the following commands:
# portmaster -w -r ghc
or
# portupgrade -fr lang/ghc
If you use pkg(8) then it is just safer to remove all the GHC-dependent
packages along with GHC and reinstall everything from scratch.
Something alone these lines may work:
# pkg query "%ro" > ghc-pkgs.txt
# pkg delete -y lang/ghc
# pkg install -y `cat ghc-pkgs.txt | grep -Ev "/hs-(haskeline|terminfo|transformers|xhtml)"

Author: haskell@FreeBSD.org

Reason:
The Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compiler has been updated to version
7.6.3 and Haskell Platform to 2013.2.0.0. Hence it is recommended to
rebuild or reinstall all the dependent ports by one of the following
commands:
# portmaster -w -r ghc
or
# portupgrade -fr lang/ghc
or
# pkg install -fR lang/ghc
Note that prefixes used for hs- ports (Cabal packages) have been
changed to PREFIX/{lib,share,share/doc}/cabal/ghc-GHC_VERSION to
enable more seamless upgrades in the future.

Affects: users of */hs-*

Author: haskell@FreeBSD.org

Reason:
Due to some unexpected dynamic linking problems, Haskell Cabal ports with
binaries that link to their own libraries may not work. With default
configuration, the following ports are known to have this problem:
Agda, BNFC, pandoc, and uuagc. (Their port revision are now bumped.)
In general, it is recommended to rebuild the port if you are
experiencing that the corresponding binary will not start, e.g.:
% agda
Shared object "libHSAgda-2.3.2-ghc7.4.2.so" not found, required by "agda"

2013-02-05

Affects: users of lang/ghc and */hs-*

Author: haskell@FreeBSD.org

Reason:
Note that the recent devel/libffi update caused some breakage in the Haskell
ports with the DYNAMIC option enabled. The problem has been identified and
fixed since then. All Haskell ports have been updated to their latest stable
versions or bumped as DYNAMIC is enabled by default.
Hence it is recommended to rebuild or reinstall all ports depending on GHC
by one of the following commands:
# portmaster -w -r ghc
or
# portupgrade -fr lang/ghc
or
# pkg install -fR lang/ghc

textproc/hs-pandoc: Switch to static build and fix option issues
- With the default options, there were many large dependencies, including
ghc. Most users likely just want the application without the compiler and
libraries, so switch to a static build.
- The build was failing with a few non-default option combinations (e.g,
with HTTPS off). Fix these and/or remove options that are probably not
that useful for most users.
- The binary is linked to libffi.so, so add LIB_DEPENDS on devel/libffi.
- Pacify portlint

lang/ghc: Update to 8.6.3 and bump PORTREVISION's of all Haskell ports.
As usual, it is recommended to rebuild or reinstall all the
dependent ports and the lang/ghc port itself in one of the following
ways:
# portmaster -w -r ghc
or
# portupgrade -fr lang/ghc
In case of pkg(8), it is probably safer to remove all the GHC-dependent
packages along with GHC and reinstall everything from scratch. For
example:
# pkg query "%ro" ghc > ghc-pkgs.txt
# pkg delete -y lang/ghc
# pkg install -y `cat ghc-pkgs.txt`
During update some hs-* ports got two PORTREVISION bumps in a row. Other ports
got a PORTVERSION update together with one PORTREVISION bump. This is caused
by bulk-bumping PORTREVISION of all hs-* ports. There are a lot of them updated,
so figuring out which ones require a bump and which are not is too tedious.
